Disclosed are media attachment systems to enable a user to embed a first media item with a link to a second media item, and distribute the first media item in a message to one or more recipient client devices. For example, the first media item may include a picture or video captured by a user at a client device. The user may generate a message that includes the first media item. In response, a media attachment system may cause display of an interface at the client device that includes an option to attach an address to a second media item to the message. For example, the second media item may include a web page, social media post, picture, or video identified by an address such as a Uniform Resource Locator (URL).

10. The system of claim 9 , wherein the relevance metric is based on the attribute of the media item.
11. The system of claim 8 , wherein the generating the data object includes: generating a graphical icon based on the selection of the web-page; assigning the address of the web-page to the graphical icon; and applying a display of the graphical icon to the media item.
12. The system of claim 11 , wherein the web-page comprises a property, and the graphical icon is based on the property of the web-page.
13. The system of claim 8 , wherein the operations further comprise: generating a message that includes the data object.
14. The system of claim 13 , wherein the message includes an ephemeral message that comprises a display duration.
15. A non-transitory machine-readable storage medium comprising instructions that, when executed by one or more processors of a machine, cause the machine to perform operations including: accessing a media item at a client device, the media item comprising an attribute; presenting a plurality of search results based on a search query, the plurality of search results including a web-page that comprises an address; receiving a selection of the web-page from among the plurality of search results; and generating a data object that comprises the media item and the address in response to the selection of the web-page.
16. The non-transitory machine-readable storage medium of claim 15 , wherein the operations further comprise: determining a relevance metric of the web-page; and wherein the presenting the plurality of search results based on the search query includes: ranking the web-page among the plurality of search results based on the relevance metric.
17. The non-transitory machine-readable storage medium of claim 16 , wherein the relevance metric is based on the attribute of the media item.
18. The non-transitory machine-readable storage medium of claim 15 , wherein the generating the data object includes: generating a graphical icon based on the selection of the web-page; assigning the address of the web-page to the graphical icon; and applying a display of the graphical icon to the media item.
19. The non-transitory machine-readable storage medium of claim 18 , wherein the web-page comprises a property, and the graphical icon is based on the property of the web-page.
20. The non-transitory machine-readable storage medium of claim 15 , wherein the method further comprises: generating a message that includes the data object.
